The Dow Jones Industrial Average is set to open higher, aiming to break its longest losing streak in almost 50 years.

Futures for the blue-chip index have risen by 89 points, or 0.2%, as investors await the Federal Reserve's decision on interest rates.

If the Dow drops today, it would be the tenth consecutive decline, the worst performance since October 1974.

Despite the positive futures, there are challenges in the market, with notable pressure from stocks like Nvidia, a leader in artificial intelligence.

Investors are closely watching the Fed's actions, which could have a significant impact on market sentiment and trading strategies.
